I recently purchased a 1954 88 and would like to know as much as I can about her history prior to my lengthy restoration process begins. Any help will be greatly appreciated! Steve

VIN 547M24512 (the seller listed it as a "Holiday" model but I see no evidence of that)
Style 54-3611
Body L 7092
Trim 63
Paint 72-60

It is not a Holiday. 54-3611 is the Fisher Body code for a '54 base 88 2-door sedan (a Holiday coupe would be a 54-3637). Super 88s would have a D after the body code. L 7092 mean the body was built in Lansing and was the 7092nd 88 2-door sedan body built. Trim 63 is for dark blue vinyl and light blue basket pattern cloth interior. Paint 72-60 is for A Polar White roof over a Turquoise body. Blue interior with Turquoise paint was not a recommended color combination.
